    Letters from Cairo (eBook, ePUB)
    A woman recounts her adventures in Egypt, the Middle East, and beyond in this absorbing memoir. Imbued with a love of travel and adventure as a child through books her parents bought her during the Great Depression, Anne Speake would eventually go on to journey to many destinations in her adult life, from Paris to Thailand to Greece-but she particularly fell in love with the Middle East, especially the city of Cairo-to which she's returned at least thirty times over the decades. This memoir of her times in Egypt, from sailing the Nile to visiting with the Sadats to living for a while in her beloved Cairo-as well as trips to Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Turkey, Syria, Palestine and Israel and more-is an in-depth, wide-ranging account of a well-traveled life that also provides a close-up view of late-twentieth-century history in the region, as well as the ways the Middle East has changed, and the ways it hasn't, over time.

    The Temple of Death
    For ten years, Colin sweated, slaved, and eventually built a nice business on a dusty world called Mars. Five more years and he'd have put all worry behind him. Ten more years and he'd have been able to retire a rich man. He didn't get those years. During a sandstorm, he blundered accidentally into the forbidden zone, where the temple of Dra Vheera waited and rested, an area guarded zealously to the death by a fanatical faith. The Martians complained, and he lost all, stripped of everything he owned, fined, and sent back to Earth on a one-way ticket. And who was to blame? The Dra Vheera priesthood of Mars, the temple, the religion. Different names for all three, but all three really one. A man named Barnhart offered vengeance-sweet, pure vengeance. With his help and money, Colin put together a force of eager men determined to strike back at the Martians. Only they found more than they bargained for. The safety of Earth was now at stake, and Colin had to race against time and death to save mankind!

    Game Theory and its application to strategic management
    Wars may be lost, companies may go bankrupt and marriages may end in divorce. Such failures may be due to mistakes in decision-making. Strategic decision-making is of great and growing importance and decision-making in general is indeed the central issue in management and operations. It determines external as well as internal action and reaction. Managers have to make decisions and act so as to avoid bankruptcy but instead ensure the company s livelihood and enhance the company s value. These represent two of the major managerial goals. Shareholders eventually demand constant improvement in performance. It is, however, an art to appropriately assess situations of decision-making. Companies and their environment are typically dynamic and strategy cannot be viewed isolated as its success will depend on the decisions of others also. Game Theory as a theory of interaction provides appealing formal concepts and tools for examining such interdependent strategic behavior in business and economic settings. Although in literature hints can be found that Game Theory is already being applied by managers, the potential of Game Theory has not yet been exploited.

    Unlocking the Wisdom of Buddhism for a Happier Life: How You Can Make Ancient Wisdom Work for You , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 176min
    We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts we make the world. These words of the Buddha point to the timeless value of Buddhism. Thoughts both shape our lives and define our future. What is the quality of the thoughts that we are bringing forth? Ultimately, every person is looking for the same thing, happiness and a sense of inner peace. Regardless of how we try to achieve that sense of happiness and peace, most likely we will end up disappointed. So often what we thought would bring us happiness and peace turns out to be short lived. Any sense of happiness and peace that involves us looking outside ourselves will be transient. Everything in life is impermanent. People will eventually leave us, money can be lost, our position or status will eventually decline, and our bodies are bound to change. There is an aspect of life that is permanent and non-changing, that aspect is life itself. The expressions of life are transient, but life itself is eternal. Every person can gain access to this eternal and non-changing aspect of themselves. This book provides the principles and meditations to make this possible. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Play It Forward: From Gymboree to the Yoga Mat and Beyond , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 511min
    Play It Forward details the remarkable journey of Joan Barnes, founder and former CEO of Gymboree, and how she learned to align her inner life with outward success. Forty years ago Joan Barnes founded a play center in a church basement with $3,000. Determined to enable women to achieve personal and entrepreneurial success, Barnes led Gymboree to become an innovative leader in a new industry: activity-based early childhood development. The company eventually became a global billion-dollar brand. But this dramatic entrepreneurial memoir is also a cautionary tale and redemption story. When Gymboree's IPO became a phenomenal success story, Barnes was nowhere near Wall Street. She had left the company because of an eating disorder that threatened to destroy her and everything she had built. Barnes overcame the disorder, charting a path that replaced demons with an enduring sense of worth and hope. She eventually resumed her business career on healthier terms, with a line of yoga studios, in an inspiring example of how women can triumph through reinvention. Published to coincide with Gymboree's 40th anniversary, Play It Forward offers listeners a deeply honest perspective of the challenges of business building and seeking a work-life balance in tune with personal values. ungekürzt.

    The Unexpected Missionary: The True Story of Gagan Gurung, Who Ran Away from His Baptism but Became a Christian Missionary to America. , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 180min
    Gagan Gurung never expected he would become a Christian, let alone a missionary and never would have believed he would become a missionary to America. His family was from Nepal, but they lived in a difficult time in Bhutan. His father had taken the family to Bhutan to find work. Eventually, oppression by the government forced the Nepalese workers to leave. Arriving as refugees in Nepal, they suffered lack of shelter, food, and water. As time went on, the camp became more livable, but never a good place to live - certainly not to raise a family. Gagan's family would live there for 22 years. Thousands of refugees grew up in the camp, married, had children, suffered, and died there. Gagan's family experienced all of this. When a local Christian missionary baptized his brother and sister in law, it was assumed Gagan would be baptized. However, when the day came, Gagan ran away. Only later, after a miracle brought Gagan Gurung to faith, would he be baptized. Years in the camp eventually gave way to an open door in America. In his new country, Gagan Gurung would work with local churches to bring many to faith in Jesus and to baptism. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sean Slater.
